KEGG   ENZYME: 4.2.3.204
Entry
EC 4.2.3.204                Enzyme                                 
Name
valerianol synthase;
ChTPS1 (gene name);
CsiTPS8 (gene name)
Class
Lyases;
Carbon-oxygen lyases;
Acting on phosphates
Sysname
(2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (valerianol-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H2O = valerianol + diphosphate [RN:R12456]
Reaction(KEGG)
R12456
Substrate
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate [CPD:C00448];
H2O [CPD:C00001]
Product
valerianol [CPD:C22174];
diphosphate [CPD:C00013]
Comment
The enzyme was characterized from the trees Camellia hiemalis and Camellia sinensis (black tea). The enzyme from Camellia hiemalis produces (2Z,6E)-hedycaryol as a minor product.
